Default Cant turn 81 G1 over by hand

Replaced / rebuilt solenoids. Starter engages and spins. Motor wont turn over. Starter pulley spins but wont turn the engine. Belts are fine. Tried to turn the engine over by hand. Thinking i have a rebuild in my future.

Starter spins inside of belt? It should lock up if the motor is locked up

...So belt tension was loose. Go to tighten the belt and the bolt holding the starter and the tension bolt are loose. After tightening everything back and proper tension on the belt, the starter pulley no longer spins inside the belt. One problem solved....now the starter still will not turn the engine over with two different charged batteries. The solenoids make a wining sound when either forward or reverse is engaged. Thinking starter is burnt up. Will update after running voltage tests on solenoids.

????? If you can't turn motor over by hand (grab the clutch and rotate it with your hands) you have internal damage.....

If you can't turn the clutch by hand, you have a seized piston. Likely from lack of oil. You can spray lots of penetrating oil in the spark plug hole and soak it for a few days, sometimes that will loosen it up. But if it went dry, the bearings and rings are prob damaged. No way to tell without taking the engine apart.
